Subject: [PATCH] get_maintainer.pl: Add optional .get_maintainer.MAINTAINERS override
Date:   Tue, 26 Jun 2018 14:25:05 -0400
Message-Id: <20180626182505.4176-1-prarit@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

OSes have additional maintainers that should be cc'd on patches or may
want to circulate internal patches.

Parse the .get_maintainer.MAINTAINERS file.  Entries in the file
can begin with a '+' to indicate the email and list entries should be
added to the exiting MAINTAINERS output, or a '-' to indicate that the
entries should override the existing MAINTAINERS file.

Also add a help entry for the .get_maintainers.ignore file.
